A New Year

I see this new year as a blank page full of promises and possibilities. Rather than state resolutions, I have goals similar to my prayer every night as I end my day- May I be a better wife tomorrow, a more patient mom, a more organized homemaker, effective servant of the Lord, as tomorrow is a new day.

I love a new start. I hope for superficial things like provision to go on our vacation to Colorado this June. And for a new car. To read more books. And to become a better knitter.

I hope to grow closer to my friends, and be a better friend to them. I hope for my family to live a "greener" life.I hope to get rid of extra "stuff." Whether it be emotional or physical baggage.

And appreciate more of what is truly important.I hope I continue to keep my eyes open for what is truly important, and never let "moments" pass by unnoticed.I hope to not set limits or expectations, or make judgements and assumptions, and only hope to focus on what is good and true.I hope to always know my purpose, and to put it to good use.I hope to always look forward and not back, up and not down...Yes, in this New Year, many treasures await...

I liked the forward not back and up not down...we tend to forget this one....and regrets.....dont forget this one too. Mne are to read my bible more,,,, this I have forgotten to do in the last couple of months.Happy New Year friend,
